Ongoing shuffling of protein fragments diversifies core viral functions linked to interactions with bacterial hosts

Biological modularity enhances evolutionary adaptability. This principle is vividly exemplified by bacterial viruses (phages), which display extensive genomic modularity. Phage genomes are composed of independent functional modules that evolve separately and recombine in various configurations. Whil...
